The car I really want is the car Volvo did not put into production - A V70 Plug-in Hybrid with the 215bhp D5 engine. By using electric motors in the rear wheels, as opposed to fitting it to the engine like Toyota, they made it possible to have hybrid power with any engine along with AWD. It was a fantastic formula but sadly they kept it to the V60 only!

And if I can't have an S60R..... then the S80 V8 will do just as nicely!

I always wanted a 480, I had a test drive in one when I was at uni but couldn't scrape the 700 quid together that he wanted for it.

855 T5-R in Olive Green fresh out the showroom. However, seeing as that can now no longer happen (unless I can find a Delorean, Flux Capcitor and Clock Tower), I'd 'settle' for a V60 Polestar in Polestar Blue.

To clarify - I mean the full shebang one with the Ohlins dampers, floating brakes and 340bhp - not just a mildy tweaked diesel with an expensive badge on the back.
